What is Miguel Street (Vintage International) about?

Review One of the few contemporary writers of whom we can speak in terms of greatness. Mel Gussow, Newsday Miguel Street is the Bowery, the Tenderloin, and the Catfish Row of Trinidads Port of Spainits citizens a loony multitude whose knavery often rises from real kinship with pathos and tragedy. . . . Naipaul is at his best in these swift caricatures of human depravity. San Francisco Chronicle Amusing and poignant. . . . Excellent reading. Chicago Tribune Naipaul does not tell stories. By some miraculous sleight-of-hand he takes you to Port of Spain and shows you the rich, bawdy, consequential lives of the Trinidadians, as though there were no intervening veil of words. . . . I rather suspect the mantle of Chekhov has fallen on Mr. Naipauls shoulders. Robert Payne, Saturday Review Product Description A stranger could drive through Miguel Street and just say Slum! because he could see no more. But to its residents this derelict corner of Trinidads capital is a complete world, where everybody is quite different from everybody else. Theres Popo the carpenter, who neglects his livelihood to build the thing without a name. Theres Man-man, who goes from run
